I have had my boy just coming up to a year now, we have had some very rough times and it has took a while for us both to trust each other.
I have my own field and stables just up the road from my house, so its just me and mine, no other horses.
Marley hasn't been ridden out with an other horse since I have had him but tomorrow a friend is boxing over her horse and her daughters pony so we can all go out hacking together.
I know this is the best way to see what he will behave like as its his usual hack we will be going on, so he doesn't have the added stress of new surroundings. Deep down I think he will be a bit excited but hopefully nothing too unmanageable but I still have butterflies just thinking about it. Its usually just me and him heading out on our lonesome, I do think he will enjoy the company and I know as long as he behaves I will definitely enjoy some company, someone to have a chat with while hacking would be such a change for me but i still am a bit (lot) anxious .
